Question 10

How to survive the flight to Sao Paulo?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy tips that will get your Sao Paulo holiday started on the right foot.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sao Paulo?

Accepted Answer

The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sao Paulo in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
